Ruffled feathers? The last thing I'm worried about is West Canaan's back up QB and the Oopty Oop. 

COPE!

I'm not sure what you are reaching for or trying to accomplish. Anyone that's ever kept up with Tatum will tell you we haven't had near the horses the last two seasons that we've had in the past and we've competed for the most part and at the very least been pretty solid offensively. Forgive me if your opinion means jack to me. Keeling punched a ticket to round 2 with a kid making his first varsity start at QB distributing the rock. While you're trying to make your argument for God knows what reason....we're just happy to play another week.

I see I’ve ruffled your feathers but you “don’t care about my opinion” lol

You judged that we can't win a "big game" with Keeling based off of us losing a round 1 playoff game, in the rain, in a rebuilding year in the coach's first year? Lol K

Daingerfield games are big and both of the Jefferson games were big with district championship implications on the line. Tatum is 0-2 vs D-Field, 1-1 against Jefferson, and 1-1 in the playoffs. A whopping 2-6 in those games against quality opponents.

Lol, he's been here 2 years....we ain't played a big one. I think you like finding mushrooms in cow pastures. 

So the playoff game last year wasn’t a big game? I mean they made a big deal of “The first district championship in 10 years” a big deal but a playoff game is not? Ok lol

Tenaha and West Sabine are the worst.

Give me Commerce Tatum has proven they don't know how to win the big one under Keeling.

Exactly how is the UIL going to punish the adults responsible? UIL has zero power over school employees. 

Fine the school district, put the people at hand on probation, but don’t punish the kids.

[UPDATE: UIL gives two-year playoff ban to Alto]

Obviously it’s horrible for the kids and new coaching staff. The real issue is the UIL punishing kids for adult mistakes, they were one kid over the limit not 50. 2 year post season ban is harsh and unfair. If the UIL claims to really be about the kids like they say they do they wouldn’t take 2 post seasons from kids. Find a way to punish the adults responsible is what should have happened.

[Center @Tatum Week 1]

Tatum learning a new system on both sides of the ball, losing over 20 seniors Center is gonna be an extremely difficult game for Tatum. 

[UPDATE: Alto hires Brock Grigsby]

Any word yet on who it is!?

[Waskom’s Whitney Keeling to Tatum]

Yea because the school board that has a combined 60+ years experience is too inexperienced.

I just think Tatum needs to switch it up and go for somebody younger. The “seasoned vet” coach hasn’t worked out in Tatum’s favor lately. 

[Waskom’s Whitney Keeling to Tatum]

Tatum swings again and…… strikes out again. I give Keeling 3 years and he’ll be out!

[Waskom’s Whitney Keeling to Tatum]

Tatum needs a guy who is young, hungry, and wants to rebuild a program that has pretty much everything. Tatum has the facilities, Athletes, and the money to attract people to the job, but they can’t seem to keep the guys they hire. They have struck out the last 3 times in searching for “the guy” this time they need to look for someone who is young and can bring a young energetic staff who is looking to build a program and bring back life to a program that has revolving door lately. As I read earlier The OC and DC have teaching positions… which I get you have to be an educator first but most OC’s and DC’s at other schools are not in a classroom and if they are they are not teaching 7 classes a day. So what it sounds like to me is Tatum needs to become more coach friendly so they can keep guys around longer for more than 1-3 years at a time. It’s gonna take more then just hiring a “big name” to turn it around it’s gotta start all the way at the top with administers and trickle down all the way down to the athletes to get them to buy into the program and the guy they are bringing in.
